The handle goes like this

first unscrew the handle of the umbrella and screw the steel pipe in place,

and cover it with the part of the old black jeans covering all of the steel pipe

put some clothing on the side of the pipe in order to bulge it and to make it ellipse and not round for the wrapping of our next step.

In order to do the sheath you must follow the following steps

first : wrap the umbrella with the vinyl cloth and sew it

second: Make the strap, the strap must be a long one longer than the sheath itself, it's 3 inch by 15 inch, make some adjustments in order to fit your needs and style

third: Make some buttons and other additional designs

Now Your Done!
